The "Come-Outers."

lCpCCiaI tVtuC bccsI
WESTON, Jan. 28.-The only excite
ment in this neck o. the woods Just now
is that raised by the new religious or
ganization styled the Come -Outers"-
that means "they come out of the
grand churches where style occupies as
much of the worshipers' time, it not
more, than serving the Lord" "God
and mammon cannot be served by the
same person.n "No man can serve two
masters Those are the two precepts
of the ''Come- Cutters" They rival the
Salvation Army in their migrations
from place to place. There are two
communities in this vicinity-one at
this place and one at Deshler. The two
join hands and have meetings at cross
roads or any place where they can get
a crowd together. They prevailed up
on a ''sistern at Deshler to sell her home
and put the money in the hands of the
head preacher for the good of the Lord,
'arguing that it was as hard for rich
man to get to heaven as it was for
camel to go through the eye of a nee

Here at Weston they ares working all
kinds of Misunderstanding the sick,
laying ON of hands and every other alb
surdity. The chief brother of this gang
says he is sanctified, as the elect are,
and he can commit no sin. He sold
some hogs in town few days since
and, it is said, was going to lick an
Irishman who put in a word to keep
his employer from being beaten out of
$40. 1t is also said the same man not
long since, as he claimed, under in
structions from the Lord, ran his wife
all over the farm with ashot gun, bound
on offering her up for sacrific. The la
dy had the power pretty strong herself,
but not enough to be offered up with a
shot gun and coroner.

from the pale of the churches, and if
they would walk down to the hotel he
would show them how the Methodist

said: "That gentleman with plug hat

ANARCHIST PLOT.

10 BLOW up the Cn1cago jail haCnef
Than Have Their Friends Die
on the GalIows. l...a..5
CHICAGO, ILL.,, Jan. 30.-Police Cap
tain Setback, in an interview to-day,
admitted that he had been for over
fortnight investigating what appeared
to be an Anarchist plot to save Spies
and his fellow-conspirators from death
on the gallows. Within a month there
has been a marked revival of interest
in the Anarchist meetings in this city,
and the efforts of the police to keep
track of their proceedings has re-
doubled. As result Captain Setback
came into possession of drawing
which was recognized as the basement
plan of the Jail and Criminal Court
building. It was accurate in every
particular. Even the sewers and waste
pipes were located. Basement plans of
the buildings on Clark street, extend
ing to the Jail alley, were also shown.
From certain Of these buildings lines
were drawn which met in the center of
the Jail-yard. Investigation showed
that the easements indicated were
those for rent or of which the leases
could be purchased.
Captain Schaack's inquiries led to
the theory that the lines centering in
the Jail-yard represented possible or
projected, tunnels. Negotiations had
been entered into for the lease of one
basement by prospective shoe dealers,
who stipulated for the division of the
basement by close partition, separa-
ting the front from the back. Boxes
were to be delivered and taken in
from the rear entrance. A close watch
has been kept, but without result, and
hopes of capturing the consplrators
have been abandoned. Captain Setback
believes that the design was to cheat the
gallows by blowing up the condemned
Anarchists, and with them the officers
delegated to conduct the execution. II
tunnels were designed to enable the
Anarchists to escape, the lines would
not reach to the Jail-yard, but rather
to the Jail itself.

..... sters.
New York SUM-
These cold, dark, winter days afford
an opportunity to revive again the
familiar lamentation over the decadence
of the United States Senate. 1t is not
so great an institution as it used to be.
Clay, Calhoun, Webster, Benton and
Wright are there no longer, alas! The
intellectual giants have gone out and
small men have come in, and so on.
We have heard this lamentation every
year since Colonel Benton died, in fact,
it began before he died. When Sew
ard, Sumner, Douglas and Chase were
Senators it was proclaimed as loudly as
now. 1t will doubtless be heard again
thirty years hence, when the world will
be told tearfully of the bygone times
when Edmunds, Sherman, Thurman,
George Gray, Beck, Payne, ingalls,,
Hawley, Van Wyck and Sawyer were
living great men and great senator's. It
is the same old story all the time. Moth
ing is quite so fine, or so sweet as it was
when we were young, and nothing ever
will be. ''. -0.n. . r

Suits Especially Adapted to Young Men
Who obj Get to Looking Warm.
New York Sun.
A feature of the styles sent out this
month is in heavy suit to be worn with
out an overcoat. There is a certain class
of men who dislike the overcoat, and
many of them will go almost an entire
season without wearing one, except when
they put on full dress to go to a bail or
an evening reception. The suit referred to
is one that will be used entirely in
the morning or afternoon, and never in
the evening under any circumstances. 1t
is rather English in repression" as the
tailors say, but il is not necessarily an
imitation of English modes; 1t is an
American invention, brought out to meet
the demands of those swells who prefer
to be seen upon the streets with their
manly forms we'll outlined in their gar
ments rather than concealed under an
overcoat of any description.
The fsbric put into this suit will be
almost invariably . rough Scotch cheviot.
1t is Of light color, usually made up In
stripes, and excessively pronounced. II
it were not for the prevailing use OF
striking effects in mems clothes the suit
would ST once be denounced IS too Icud
The trousers are of course large, even
larger than those put in the full dress
suit. The coat msy be either single
breasted or double, but it is not crta
way; it closes square st the bottom
The collar is rather high and decided;
side pockets are used. The sleeves are
made up free without any imitation Of
cuffs. It need not be said that the man
who wears this suit must carry cane.

AN EXHIBITION OF ZEAL.-'Preachers
have odd experiences of which they say
very little," said minister, "When 1
instituted my Sunday evening meetings l
was very much gratiied at the large at
tendance of young people. Iattributsd the
large audience, of course, to interest in re-
ligious services, and took all the young
ladies and young gentlemen into my heart
and praised them without stint for their
exhibition of zeal. One night as announc-
ed the hymn, 4 Need Thee Every Hour,' /
distinctly saw young lady in one of the
front seats nudge young gentleman at her
side. Three seats back saw young gen.
tleman nudge young lady, and five seats
back saw another gentleman nudge
yonng lady. This set me to thinking, and
the next Sunday night Igave out the hymn
with my eyes wide open, and as / uttered
the words Il Need Thee Every Hoar,' 1
saw several people nudge several other
people, aud my notions of the zeal of these
young ladies and gentlemen changed
They came to church to be in each others
company"

How Florida Girl Escaped from a Bear
[Tallahasse Cor. jackson Herald.l

[Tallahasse Cor. jackson Herald.l
The old gentleman and his daughter had
been out to Geddie's Mill, on the Ocklock-
once river, and returning, stopped near a
creek to feed the horse and to eat their
lunch. Just as they finished and the young
lady was cutting up tobacco to fill
her father spipe they heard rustling in
the bushes, and looking around saw a
huge black bear. The old gentleman ran
off to get his gun, and the young lady in
her excitement stuck the plug of tobacco in
in her mouth and Skinned up the nearest
tree. When she reached the topmost
boughs, glancing down, she found the bear
close at her heels, his eyes sparkling with
delight and broad smile playing upon his
face. Quick as thought she squirted the
tobacco juice spang into the eyes of bruin
and chucksd the plug down his throat. Let
ting go his hold to spit in his hands and
wipe his weeping eyes, the bear tumbled to
the ground, alighting plump on the old
gentieman's head just as he was looking up
for chance to shoot without hitting his
daughter. The old gentleman and his gun
were knocked kerfummux into the creek,
and while they were foundering around in
search of terra frma the bear got up, wiped
his eyes, washed out bis mouth, picked up
the old mans lunch. basket, and struck off
to the woods as if huckleberry hunting.

ATaTiblG SurgEal0peradn
A FATAL. MISTAKE.

Of February 23d, 1883, pub
hshed an account Of a fatal
surgical operation which caused
I a great commotion among med
ical men throughout the whole
country, DR.. Thayer, the most
eminent surgeon in Cleveland,
pronouncing it scandalous. It
appears that a Mrs. King had
been suffering for many years
from some disease of the stom-
ach, which had resisted the
treatment Of all the physicians
in attendance. The disease
commenced with a slight de.
rangement of the digestion,
with a poor appetite, followed
by peculiar indescribable dis
tress in the stomach, q feeling
that has been described as a
faint "all gone" sensation, a
sticky slime collecting about
the teeth, causing a disagree
able taste. This sensation was
not removed by food, but, on
the contrary, it was increased.
After a while the hands and
feet became cold and sticky
a cold perspiration. There
was a constant tired and Ian
guild feeling. Then followed a
dreadful nervousness, with
gloomy forebodings. Finally
the patient was unable to re-
tain any food whatever, and
there was constant pain in the
abdomen. All prescribed rem
edies failing to give relief, a
consultation was held, when it
was decided that the patient
had a cancer in the stomach,
and in order tosave the hepatient's
life an operation was iustifi-
able. Accordingly, on the 22d
Of February, 1883, the opera
ton was performed by DR..
Vance in the presence Of DR..
Tuckerman, DR.. Pel1ier, DR..
Arms, DR.. Gordon, DR.. Capner,
and DR.. Halliwell Of the Police
Board. The operation consist.
ed in laying open the cavity
Of the abdomen and exposing
the stomach and bowels. When
this had been done an examin-
alton of the organs was made,
but to the horror and dismay
of the doctors there was no
cancer to be found. The pa
tient did not have q cancer.
When too late the medical men
discovered that they had made
a terrible mistake: but thew
sewed the parts together and
dressed the wound that they
had made, but the poor woman
sank from exhaustion and died
in a few hours. How sad it
must be for the husband Of this
poor woman to know that his
wife died from the effects of a
surgical operation that ought
never to have been performed
If this woman had taken the
proper remedy for Dyspepsia
and Nervous Prostitution flor
this was what the disease really
was}, she would have been liv-
ing to-day. SHAKER EXTRACT OF
RooTs, OF SEIGEL's CURATIVE
SYRUP, a remedy made ex-
pressly for Dyspepsia or Indi-
gestion, has restored many such
cases to perfect health after all
other kintis Of treatment have
failed. The evidence of it's
efficacy in curing this class of
cases is too voluminous to be
published here; but those who
read the published evidence in
favor of this dyspeptic remedy
do not question its convincing
nature, and the article has an
extensive sale.
